Label TextFrank Nankivell's cartoon depicts Ulysses S. Grant with financiers Jay Gould and James Fisk. Speculation by the two latter in their attempts to corner the gold market led to the collapse of the New York Gold Exchange on September 24, 1869, one of several scandals during the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant.
